fantastic! Her vocals are so meldible and flowing all over the place. That is her biggest magic trick! Her harp playing is strong.. the arrangements are a new fling!

I suppose I was expecting more traditional harp music but Maeve Gilchrist's album is a breath of fresh air, exploring jazz, latin and celtic themes. A very distinctive voice makes this album a pleasure to listen to. It was out of stock when I first requested but since then I have bought 2 copies, one to send to my relatives in Europe. Looking for more from this talented young artist

I heard a cut of this CD on the radio and I had to have it.  Too bad it was sold out and I had to wait for CD Baby to grab some more.  It was worth the short wait.  The music is a meld of celtic folk and jazz.  On some cuts it is more jazz and on others more folk, but they are all fine.  Maeve Gilchrist has a strong (Scots) voice and a very deft touch on the harpstrings.  I suppose if you like hard driving music this will not be your cup of tea.  If you like updated celtic then this is a must have piece of work.

It seems that Maeve Gilchrist, the singer of the trio and a mighty harp-wizard, can use her instrument for anything that other people play with a guitar. Her dark and versatile voice contrasts the bright harp sound. Andres Rotmistrovsky's bass adds musical comments and melodic ideas while Marcelo Woloski's percussions go light, airy and colorful. The music moves around jazz, Celtic and Latin styles in a vivid mood most of the time. This album is an abiding pleasure to listen. Few more words on my website. -- Oh, yes. Dwarf king Thorin Oakenshield (J.R.R. Tolkien: The Hobbit) used to play the harp, too. Sure, he was not as good.
